52 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $658 in drug cost · 16 antibiotic prescriptions to 15 people.
Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.
